Plot
As a baby, Khitan-born Qiao Feng loses his parents and is sent to be raised by a couple from the Song Empire, which is at war with the Khitan-led Liao Empire. He grows up and becomes the powerful chief of the Beggars’ Sect, utilizing martial arts in battles. However, he is framed for the murder of deputy chief Ma Dayuan by his wife Lady Ma, and is kicked out from the sect after they discover his origin. He is soon framed for the murders of his parents and Xuanku, one of the sect’s elders, when he finds their corpses; after the latter’s murder, a fight ensues between Qiao Feng and the Beggars’ Sect. He escapes while saving Morong servant Azhu, who was ordered to steal the Sect’s Yijin Jing.
Due to Azhu being heavily injured, Qiao Feng takes her to be healed by doctor Xue Muhua, with the two growing closer on the way. However, once they arrive at the Heroes Gathering Manor, they are rejected; to prove his dedication for Azhu, Qiao Feng decides to sacrifice his life to save hers. After Qiao Feng drinks with the Beggars’ Sect to sever ties, he fights against them. Near the end of the battle, a wounded Qiao Feng is saved by a mysterious person who kills most of the assailants.
Azhu is healed by Xue Muhua, who intends to keep her until Qiao Feng returns. Azhu ends up escaping, burning down Xue Muhua and his medical station in the process. Meanwhile, Qiao Feng starts to question his morality and origin after killing Song soldiers to save Khitan citizens during a sandstorm. Qiao Feng and Azhu soon reunite, professing their love for each other. Qiao Feng, who has renamed himself to Xiao Feng to reflect his true nationality, starts to search for the “Leading Big Brother”, who was responsible for the ambush that killed his parents when he was a baby. Azhu goes undercover as Lady Ma, the true murderer of Ma Dayuan, and talks to Bai Shijing, who serves as her co-conspirator. Seeing through Azhu’s disguise, he lies to her and tells her that Dali emperor Duan Zhengchun is the Leading Big Brother.
Qiao Feng and Azhu head to Mirror Lake, where they learn that he has conceived several children with several wives, with Azhu being one of the children. Upon learning this, Azhu stops Qiao Feng from killing Duan Zhengchun by disguising herself as him, causing him to unintentionally kill her. While mourning Azhu’s death, Duan Zhengchun tells Qiao Feng that he is not the Leading Big Brother.
Qiao Feng, who ends up being accompanied by Azhu’s sister Azi, confronts Bai Shijin and Kang Min. Soon, Murong family head Murong Fu and his army arrive, killing Bai Shijin and Kang Min. Qiao Feng fights Murong Fu while Azi fends off the army. At one point in the battle, Qiao Feng ends up nearly losing consciousness, but is able to get up and defeat Murong Fu after remembering his Buddha teachings when he was young. With the battle over, Azi and the arriving Beggars’ Sect members watch as Qiao Feng rides away.
Some time later, Qiao Feng, as promised, takes Azhu’s remains to the country side and buries her as his wife. He confesses that she will always be with him while giving her updates about her family including her mom moving in with her father then leaving again and Azi disappearing to roam the world. As Qiao Feng leaves, the scene changes to what life would’ve been if he and Azhu had left everything behind and raised cattle. Qiao Feng and Azi then ride horseback towards a potential hostile army.
In a mid-credit scene, Murong Fu is revived by his father Murong Bu. In a second mid-credits scene, Murong Bu visits Qiao Yuanshan, Qiao Feng’s biological father, who survived the Leading Big Brother’s attack, abandoned Qiao Feng, murdered Qiao Feng’s adoptive parents and Xuanku, and saved Qiao Feng from the fight at the Heroes Gathering Manor.
